I live in Kirkland, and have been to Gameworks and it is pretty rad. It's been awhile though.

Football Manager is being played by 60,000 people right now on Steam. It's number two overall. Number one is Dota 2.

Pardon my French, but you are the one coming off as elitist.

With Steam, I can bring my PC to my parents cabin and play all of my 283 games in offline mode. The Xbox One has to be connected to the internet at least once a day. For me that's a big difference.

What you're stating is hypothetical. You have no idea if you can do that on an Xbox One.

It's nothing like Steam. I can go anywhere and sign in to Steam on any computer, and voila! My game is there to be played by ANYONE. No fees, no nothing. Next time I go over to their house the game is already on their HDD and they can play again immediately.

What system do you game on?

After reading all of your comments and responses, I have a hard time believing you really game on the PC at all. I haven't posted on Kotaku since the new format....until I now.

Did you play on PC or console?

I have two children who happen to be little girls..........I have a small 'play' window.

Technically, he's swearing to himself......

Now playing

I can't wait for Metro: Last Light! After looking at the footage, it looks like the graphics are the same as Metro 2033 or maybe worse. Probably my imagination.

"NOT 'Our' representative"

Actually on Steam there are more and more local co-op games supported. Personally I play Street Fighter IV, Street Fighter X Tekken, Serious Sam, Portal 2, Lego Batman etc....and I play three and four player local co-op with my kids with games like The Cave, Trine 2 and Sonic Racing Transformed using 360 controllers.

The old commenting system was soooo much better. Most of these people making horrible comments would have long since been banned. This is no longer a site I would feel comfortable looking at when at work, because some of the disturbing jpegs put on here recently.

Buying the game again would be a bad idea obviously. Like you say the servers are different for every platform. The Steam version does look pretty nice though, especially since it's using Steamworks.

Believe it or not, there are some advantages in being a PC gamer using Steam. I have a PS3 and a Wii as well, but lately I have been almost exclusively PC. Free content and updates/patches asap are nice too. On the consoles patches and content have to go through a lengthy certification process.

It's $39.99 on Steam, and it comes with a free copy of Resident Evil 5 and all four upcoming dlc packs if you pre-purchase. If you already have RE5, you can gift it to a friend. Not a bad deal.

Um, by market share Valve most definitely 'owns' the PC. I am under the impression you are a console only gamer......just a hunch.
